Indirect Observations of Electric Fields at Comet 67P
Abstract No spacecraft visiting a comet has been equipped with instruments to directly measure the static electric field. However, the electric field can occasionally be estimated indirectly by observing its effects on the ion velocity distribution. We present such observations made by the Rosetta spacecraft on 19 April 2016, 35 km from the nucleus. At

Abstract Benjamin Martin was an itinerant lecturer, instrument maker, and the author of a substantial number of textbooks mainly in the sciences. His biggest project, however, was The General Magazine of Arts and Sciences (1755–64), dedicated to the dissemination of knowledge to a broad audience.

The radical Pietist Johann Conrad Dippel was a self‐proclaimed adept – a maker of gold and the philosophers’ stone. He was also a magister of theology, a doctor of medicine, and a self‐taught chemist, who coinvented the pigment Prussian Blue together with Johann von Diesbach, became known for his animal pyrolysis oil, his wonder‐wound balm, his ...

Abstract We analyze five large‐scale tail disturbances in comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF)'s ion tail using images from astrophotographers, tracking specific features within the tail to determine their speeds. We employ a heliosphere model to estimate when the comet crossed the heliospheric current sheet (HCS).

Helium in Mercury's Extended Exosphere Determined by Pick‐Up Generated Ion Cyclotron Waves
Abstract Helium (He) was first detected by remote spectroscopic observations of the Ultraviolet Visible Spectrometers (UVVS) instrument in Mercury's exosphere during the three Mariner 10 flybys in 1974 and 1975. Here, we derive the first in situ radial density profile of He in Mercury's extended exosphere by analyzing magnetic field and plasma ...

Ion‐Scale Characteristics of the Martian Magnetic Pile‐Up Boundary Layer
Abstract The Martian magnetic pile‐up boundary (MPB) delineates the interface between the magnetosheath and the induced magnetosphere, but its global ion‐scale characteristics remaining unclear. Utilizing a three‐dimensional Hall magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model, this study aims to reveal the features of the MPB layer, including magnetic field, current ...

Abstract Meteoroids of sub‐milligram sizes burn up high in the Earth's atmosphere and cause streaks of plasma trails detectable by meteor radars. The altitude at which these trails, or meteors, form depends on a number of factors including atmospheric density and the astronomical source populations from which these meteoroids originate.

Waves and Instabilities in Saturn's Magnetosheath: 2. Dispersion Relation Analysis
Abstract The WHAMP (Rönnmark, 1982, https://inis.iaea.org/search/search.aspx?orig_q=RN:14744092) and LEOPARD (Astfalk & Jenko, 2017, https://doi.org/10.1002/2016ja023522) dispersion relation solvers were used to evaluate the growth rate and scale size for mirror mode (MM) and ion cyclotron (IC) instabilities under plasma conditions resembling Saturn's ...
